This is a fun game when it works. A friend and I have just over 450 hours over 3 plays then all ended early due too co op saves not loading after X amount of hours. Frist two runs we got too just about 180 hours and this last one, third save, got bugged at just under 90 hours. The people and builds you can do along the way are great, fun and interesting. I feel like there are very few runs that are the same. The game is fun, hard and makes you think. I love it when it works.
bought all the dlc and now game doesnt open at all
game is good but the dlc is a scam
Im sorry. Too much DLC and not enough main game content for the price. I really believe that if all the DLC was part of the main game they would have made way more money overall and had more notoriety if they made another game in the future. Very disappointing
The core WarTales game is very enjoyable, engaging, and immersive. So, buy the core game especially on sale--seriously. Having said that, the DLCs fail to re-invent the same level of charm and actually magnify minor issues into major ones. One of the biggest issues for me was, for example playing the Pirates DLC after completing the core game and being absolutely disenchanted with the level matching. You complete the game only to be re-involved with petty disputes, completing quests, grabbing gear and information often on toddler difficulty. It makes it seem like you graduated school but you're still hanging around as though you haven't. They would have been better off making the DLC progression more linear and level locked with an obvious continuing story and progression. If they wanted to re-use the core maps, transform them into clans, fiefdoms, or kingdoms you can manage with diplomacy, economy, perks, etc. But going back and having to fight level 1 content absolutely breaks the immersion for me. The existing world, after completion of the core game, needs to be transformed to higher level content or have the DLC avoid that world altogether. Core game (YES!) DLCs (Sadly NO!)
As a turn based lover of such games as XCOM 1&2, Jagged Alliance, Battle Brothers etc. this game is terrible. It feels like a mobile game from 15 years ago. The interface is clunky and unintuitive, the game-play options feel very limited and implausible. I have to wait to discover that people can actually be fishermen before I can start a profession as a fisherman, like all of them have never been outside before. My new characters can't even wear light armour for some strange reason and my "man-at arms" starts with a barrel-lid shield and an old club...lol wut? Anyway whatever, the combat feels very badly paced and awkward - actually that's how the entire game feels. I bought this game on ridiculously cheap sale for nearly £7 so I was very excited with all the very positive reviews, but having tried hard to get into it for a few hours I'm giving up, its too janky for me and I feel I overpaid by about £3.50.
Honeslty, this game is really good (I've played it a lot before its release), but the price of the DLC is just atrocious. So if I were to reinstall the game and add all the new features, I'd have to pay 100 € ??? Has Shiro been bough by Paradox interactive???
Polityka wydawania DLC to koszmar, kupioną podstawkę traktuj jako wersje Demo
Base game was good first hour or two, thought surely the DLCS would add to it. Learned some of its frustrating, Running a kingdom for... some reason doesn't even connect to the game at all. There some sport you can play in game that crashes the game. Seems to have been that way a very long time. They just pump out DLCs and don't seem to fix anything. The thaumaturge class is wildly broken tbh, and feels like they don't fit the theme much.
This could be a good game. Instead, they just leave the base game half baked and keep churning out dlc's. over priced dlc's with content that should have just been in the base game. the balance is jacked, and any good mods are not supported so they never get updated. this company is in for a cash grab and not caring about the game they started with. or the community they had. its sad to see, but this really could have been something great.
